Being “stuck” around the apartment, in order to avoid going “stir crazy”, I’m finding myself shooting more and more pictures of the common sights around the place; finding pictures where I’d not have looked, before. I’m also finding that new approaches and techniques are necessary in this new type of photography, so I’m finding myself confronting a new learning curve, necessary for the new subject matter.
I reckon it’s time to stop talking now, and put up a couple of pics …
Kinda contrasty, what with the direct sunlight on that dirty window, and no, I’m not about to go leaning out that second-floor window, stretching out around to clean all the crud off the glass. There are two double-pane sliding windows on each side, and that’s outside my limits.
And another one, with Fuzzybritches as the subject …
Not so bad, this time … the dirty window actually seems to help with the contrast. Incidentally, those light dots are not crud on the glass; they are actual white flowers in the lawn. Mr. Cat was assiduously ignoring me; he tires of watching the antics of the Man-Mountain that lives in his house.
Well, there they are … not very many, especially considering the total number of exposures that I made … I don’t get so many usable ones, working in these new conditions.
Take care, folks … Cheers!
